1. we need a downloadable audiobook and ebook consortium like this one: http://nh.lib.overdrive.com/82197E0E-55C6-42EA-ACFA-1841DC4FE8C2/10/411/en/Default.htm

let's start one (this county?) - with the grant it would be piloted for a small area, would be nice if it was eventually for all of western MA or Ma. that would be collaboration, would benefit students, and fill a void

Perhaps HCC will partner with us

2. having a opac will enable us to participate in mass library system and perhaps worldcat?
